Encoded with a Vigenere cipher ... cool!
- jcsalterego 16y agoNot saying it would take me less time but damn, it took the retired CIA code breaker "several weeks" to solve?
- JCThoughtscream 16y agoFrom the article, it seems as if its breaking was done A. by hand, and B. more as a hobby than anything else. It was explicitly noted that if they had bothered feeding it through a computer, it would've taken "a fraction" of the time.
